Australia did make her own 17's during WW2 and a few weird bits turn up in places. Keith found a whole pile of Top covers once in Melbourne somewhere.
I think they got binned with a lot of other gear from Hughes.

But remember guys, you can buy Bren Guns over there, in the box they came in or Sten guns... or warm beer!

Your welcome to come down, just bring some Bren guns with you, in the box they came in and I'll heat up a beer for you.

I can remember the first bren I ever bought and it was in new condition still boxed ,I'm pretty sure it was made by Lithgow so I'm assuming they were bought into the UK by Budge / ryton arms as they were all ex-Ozy stock.
This was back in the late eighties though.
They are selling for ridiculous money at the moment and there are loads around.
